Living Room Guide: Window Treatments and More
Your living room is truly the centerpiece of your home. It's often where family memories are made and where you go to relax and unwind after a long day or a day off. Creating a cohesive style for your living room can be daunting, but our team of interior experts at The Shade Shop is going to make it easy with this guide to creating a cohesive, harmonious living room, covering everything from furniture to color choices and window treatments.
Creating a Cohesive Style
The design of your living room sets the tone for your home. If you're looking to achieve a cohesive look, consider the following elements:
- Color Palette: Choose colors that complement your furniture, rugs, and artwork. Neutral tones can create a calming effect, while bold hues add energy.
- Textures: Layer textures like plush cushions, woven rugs, and sleek metallic accents for depth.
- Focal Points: A striking fireplace, statement art piece, or dramatic window treatment can anchor the room's design.
Living Room Window Treatments: Style Meets Functionality
Window treatments are an important aspect of your overall living room design. On top of the visual appeal they provide, they'll help determine the natural light levels, create privacy, add visual interest, and add insulation. At The Shade Shop, we offer a range of Hunter Douglas window treatments to suit a number of different interior designs for living rooms.
- Banded Shades for Versatility: Hunter Douglas Banded Shades blend sheer and solid panels to create a unique look that gives ample natural light. These shades are a great option for both modern and transitional spaces, allowing you to switch between transparency and opacity effortlessly.
- Roman Shades for Elegance: Hunter Douglas Vignette® Roman Shades are known for their luxurious fabrics and unique folds that mimic the look of drapery. Roman shades provide a chic look to any traditional or contemporary living room, and they come in several different textures and colors to complement your decor.
- Shutters for Timeless Appeal: Hunter Douglas wood or composite shutters add architectural interest to your home with excellent light control. Shutters can pair well with rustic, coastal, or farmhouse-inspired interiors.
- Motorized Options for Modern Living: Simplify your life with motorized window treatments. PowerView® Automation is perfect for large living room windows or hard-to-reach spaces, and these shades integrate seamlessly with smart home systems.
Beyond Window Treatments: Furnishing Your Living Room
Living room window coverings may frame the room, but the furniture and decor bring it to life. Pair your Hunter Douglas treatments with other design elements for a polished look:
- Seating Arrangements: Select sofas and chairs that align with your room's scale and traffic flow. Look for timeless designs with durable fabrics to withstand daily use.
- Lighting: Layered lighting, including floor lamps, sconces, and dimmable overhead fixtures, can create ambiance and highlight your design elements.
- Accessories: Tie the room together with throw pillows, curtains, and area rugs that echo your window treatments' color and texture.
